Containers Explained

• Previously in Virtualization Customers would have one app per VM
• This was done to minimize dependency conflicts
• Huge waste of CPU resources
• Containers are much more efficient at distribution of CPU resources
• Process Isolation
• Ideal for automation

How Are Containers Made

Docker

• Standard for containerized apps
• Easy way to build/manage containers
• dockerhub
• Can pull images to run on any machine
• Any machine can now have consistency deploy and scale apps without dependencies
• This is a key building block for your final project
• Using containers will distinguish you from other Data Science Applicants
